Overall a decent place to work.
HR Coordinator/ Appraisal Recuiter-Coordinator (Former Employee), Broomfield, CO – May 15, 2013
Urbans is a fast pace enviroment, and can be hard to keep up with. They are decent to work for, but limited in the ability to advance in if you don't have a good relationship with the right people.

Jobs going to India. Just run away.
Home retention (Current Employee), Colorado – December 12, 2012
Pros: friendly staff
Cons: incompetent executives, no vision or leadership to make this a stable company, very long hours, no work/life balance
The word is out that Infosys is buying Urban and our jobs are going to India. Not sure there is a reason to review the company now. How ironic that the owner was always talking up that Urban was a black owned company, but now he just sells out and sends our jobs overseas. Clearly shows that it was all corporate bull, and the executives and the owner – more... were just out to make a buck.

Management only cares about squeezing all they can out of you and then you'll be terminated like so many before. Get a job at McDonalds before this place. The worst abuse comes from the HR department. – less

No home/social life.
Loan Processor (Former Employee), Broomfield, CO – October 16, 2012
Pros: the only pro is the people you meet. very friendly.
Cons: bad management and forced ot.
Work days are never consistent. You never knew what time you were going to be off work. If you had planned an event for and evening and there was too much work left, you weren't allowed to leave. 15 minute breaks weren't given. You have to constantly bug and ask managers for break. Lunch breaks were always being pushed back. Basically pushed to work – more... 16 hour days without a second lunch and expected to be back the next morning in less than 8 hours. If you left early before all the work was finished even if it was more than 10 hours, your job was on the line. – less

Uneducated management
DSCR (Former Employee), Broomfield Colorado – October 11, 2012
Cons: management, training, pay
I spent 7 months of my life I will never get back. The management is bad and that is being nice. Urban Lending lost it's identity in the back pocket of BOFA. And intellisource the staffing company happen to be in cahoots with Urban Lending. If you work here you will not have a home life. Please plan on putting in a min of 65-70 hours of time in 1 week – more... and mandatory Saturdays at least they are nice enough to tell you to work on Saturday prior to your shift ending Friday evening. The training is a joke. They are arrogant and continued to play us around as employees. Your messing with peoples lives and your praying on people that need jobs so you feel they are helpless and willing to do anything you want. Well out of 20+ people nearly all have left in 1 month time after the transfer! What does that say about a company? Then they offer us a pay cut to join the team and say we will make up our loss in pay with plenty of overtime. Do not work for this company!!!!!!!! – less

Not a good place to work
DSCR (Former Employee), Broomfield – August 1, 2012
Cons: not trained well to do the actual job.
This is a horrible place to work. Management very unfriendly, snobbish, and backstabbing. Way way too much overtime. They do not give an inch for the employee. Outside life does not exist. Those people live to work, not work to live. Employees not so friendly either. If I could give it "0" stars I would.

Fast paced environment with room for advancement
Customer Advocate (Former Employee), Broomfield, CO – July 6, 2012
Pros: room for advancement, full benefits and decent salary.
Cons: job stability is questionable, as company works according to contracts. not family-friendly, extensive overtime is required and unpredictable.
A typical day at work consists of 6 hours of call center activity and 2+ hours of fulfillment time when employees process and respond to all escalated complaints received in the bank's office of CEO and President. I learned about the process and options for home loan modifications. The hardest part of the job was keeping a positive attitude with high – more... volume of irrate callers and ever changing policy and procedure from management. – less

Shanna – July 27, 2012

Absolutely the worst place I have ever worked. It is a hostile work environment. You are demanded to work 50+ hrs a week and if you refuse or do not want overtime your job is threatened. They are a production based company with unrealistic goals. They have no real structure or training and and this intensifies the stress and discontent. Employees are tired, overwork, underpaid and the stress is definitely not worth the pay.

Fast paced environment with numerous duties.
Processor II (Current Employee), Broomfield, CO – June 5, 2012
Good entry level job to get some experience. I learned most of what I know with Microsoft Office at this job, and keep learning daily. A typical day is very fast paced, with numerous job duties that can vary day to day. Changes to procedures are made frequently; this job has made it very easy to adapt to change quickly.

Would not work here again
Not Disclosed (Former Employee), Denver, CO – May 13, 2012
Cons: everything
Urban's leadership from the top down is disgraceful. Urban is a third party vendor who allows their client to dictate everything from who is hired to who is fired. Overtime is required at a moments notice, and there are no allowances made for a work-life balance.

Productive and Learning experience
Advocate (Current Employee), Broomfield Co – April 29, 2012
Pros: learning the mortgage industry
Cons: mandatory overtime
working with people that have experience in the mortgage industry and the rules and regulations of the banking industry involved with mortgages.
The management was very knowledgeable and patient and expected the job to get done in a precise manner.
the co-workers all work as a team helping one another out to get the client to the correct line of business – more... to assist them,
The hardest part of the job is to tell the client there is nothing that can be done to save their home from foreclosure.
The most enjoyable part ot the job was to tell the client that they have been approved for the modification or refinancing of their home. – less

Horrible Company
Mid-Manager (Former Employee), Broomfield, Colorado – February 28, 2012
Pros: employees
Cons: everything else
This is a joke of a company. Upper management has little or no knowledge on how to run a business. The CEO is looking to sell so really could care less whether it is a good place to work or not. There is no vision, no mission, no infrastructure in place to handle the "growth" this company is experiencing. That "growth" is simply banks throwing their – more... undesirable cases to this vendor and because leadership is so immature they always says yes whether it makes good business sense or not. There is no regard for the employee and no desire to hear feedback on how to make the company better. DO NOT WORK HERE – less
